Sometimes it is not easy to “make lemonade” from the “lemons” and out of habit you may choose to focus on what is "bitter" and "sour."
You all have the ability to change your focus within seconds and in doing so the Universe changes with you. In choosing to believe there is another way to look at every situation, you open yourselves up to new possibilities.
Do not get stuck in what seems to be the negative, but instead get excited about the positive that follows so closely behind.
“In order to heal it, you must feel it.” "In order to forgive, you must not deny the pain." "In order to 'let things go' you must first hold them.”
It would be much easier to do it all mentally, maybe even verbally. “I choose to be here” “I choose to move on” “I choose to never visit this memory after today.” But you did not “sign up” for this journey to talk your way through it. Your plan was to walk your way through. Each and every road, path, step and wrong turn was a possibility you excitedly mapped out before leaving Home.
At times, it is thought that in order to Be spiritual, one must be emotionless. In order to reach enlightenment, one must have nothing but pure thoughts.
It is in the allowing of all emotions and all thoughts that you awaken your spirit and your soul reaches enLightenment.
Friends for a Season, Always a Reason
We ask that you never regret having merged with another, for in doing so you have not only given but you have also received. While the tide may turn, or the leaves grow brittle and fall, choose to focus on the life that existed when all fruits were ripe.
Too many are feeling as if things are over. The past two weeks, more than ever before, friends have shared they are “done, tired, want out,” etc. It breaks my heart, yet I understand completely.
